Video Player - Nexus 7 (2013) General

In KitKat if I click an mp4 link it starts up the video player in the pic.
But in JellyBean, without flash installed, it would ask me which video player I wanted to play the video in.
Is there any way to get that choice of video players for mp4 links in KitKat?

Hey, you can reset your default apps, or use ES file Explorer to change just that one. I'm sure there are other ways and file explorers, but that's the way I do it, so I know that does the trick.

Problem with default video player in khals and Dex's rom

Hi, there seems to be a major flaw in Dexter's and Khals Tom because somehow they can't play large mp4 or avi files. Small clips do play but when trying to play larger mp4 or avi files there is an error which says that "File cannot be played or displayed". Any suggestions?

Mobo Player used with soft-decoding. Download codecs if needed - available in the market. Works greate!
But what is wrong with the default video player?

I searched up this problem and found a lot of driod x users have it after upgrading to 2.2 and the cause of this build.prop. So does anyanyoneknows how to replace a defective build.prop with a working one.

Who cares for default player anyway. There are tones of free @ the market. Maybe next time Khal can build-in one instead of the stock one. Building-in ES Explorer was a great idea already.
I think the default player is better

Web Video Player 0o ?

Hi,
Is there anyway to fix or improve de Web video player? Because the stock one really suck, once I get in full screen, all the button (Play/Pause/Go Forward or Backward) stops to work so yeah it is pretty much annoying.
Edit: I'm talking about video player in Chrome Browser

The standard Nexus 7 is not supplied with Flash. Yeah, I know Google decided not to include it because it is yesterday's technology! However it can easily be sideloaded. Just google it. Make sure you install. Version 11.1.115.11. There are problems with some of the other versions floating around.
Have you tried another player like "dice player" or "mx player"?

Thanks,
1. I wasn't talking about flash at all but the Web Video Player itself
If I download these apps, will it replace thw video player on Chrome?

You'll have your choice between the player you install (mx is a good one too) and stock.They won't "replace" stock though, it'll still be an option.

Why convert, just install MX Player. It is free and plays anything. The bonus is you do not need different versions (original and coverted copy on your PC)

It's iStudio 6 and has an android converter. I haven't used it, I just happened to see a post about it somewhere and decided to give it a shot.

Just use Mx player or vplayer... don't need convert.

Because no matter what framerate will suffer. And it is much more battery friendly to use GPU render in then software.

[Q] Can't play this video after loading Slimbean

Loaded Slimbean on my S4 yesterday. I love it by they way, real clean look.
I can't watch videos though, specifically avi files, both locally and streaming from my NAS. Youtube works, recorded video works (minus sound), but not the rest of the content that I could play on my stock rom.
Did some googling, and I found some references to the DPI settings, so I tried setting that to stock (480), but that didn't help.
Any suggestions?
Could be some bloat that was removed, is that a tw rom or aokp?

Loaded slimbean build 6. Still have the issue playing videos with the native video player and es file manager. I really like this rim but no video is a deal breaker.
Gonna try some other video apps but its a shame I even have to

MX Player?

Hi,
So got my i9505 today, previously had the i9100.
I've got an issue, whereby when I am in a browser and I want to play a video, MX player doesn't play despite being set as the default player, instead it's video player that plays the video.
I've reset defaults for MX and set it as default again, to no avail... I can't seem to disable the Video Player app in App Management as I'm sure that would probably work... I'm guessing I'd have to be rooted... Which I don't really want to do just yet.
Anyone got any suggestions or advice?
Thanks in advance!

So stock player plays the video? You should be able to deselect it as default

Whenever I go to settings > more > Application Manager > all
I choose video player, and everything is greyed out, can force stop only...which results it starting up again when video is played.
I can't disable it, can't even untick show notifications.
This is the International S4.
See screenshot.

Yeah, just played around with Firefox and Dolphin and they seem to have it as it should be.
So to disable the stock video player, i'd have to root, then I can freeze it?
(rather not really root a phone i've hard barely a day, was waiting for root and customization when I get bored of TouchWiz).

The default browser on the S4 is based on Chrome, not the AOSP browser. That's why flash doesn't work, why clicking two close links shows a magnifier like Chrome, and why scrolling sucks in it.
